Disable MouseLook w/ Keyboard to use UI

Newbie here. Using default First Person Controller prefab.

Whenever I move my mouse over to the screen-space UI, the camera obviously moves. I want to use a keyboard toggle to turn MouseLook off and on as needed. I know MouseLook exists in both the First Person Controller and the actual Camera.

Is there a script that will do this already? I have seen numerous threads on the topic, but all are partial or don't seem to work (perhaps I am missing something). Anyone have a good one they can share?

 

Just from the top of my head, didnt test it.
There are probally easier / more efficient ways to do it, but this should work for now. Make sure to change the line:

Code (CSharp):

1. if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.P)) {

To your preferred Key

Create a new script named: DisableMouseLook (Or something different, but then make sure to rename it in the script as well). Attach it to your FPS Controller:

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2.  
3. public class DisableMouseLook : MonoBehaviour {
4.     MouseLook mouseLookController;
5.     MouseLook mouseLookCamera;
6.  
7.     void Start () {
8.         mouseLookController = GetComponent<MouseLook> ();
9.         mouseLookCamera = Camera.main.GetComponent<MouseLook> ();
10.     }
11.  
12.     void Update () {
13.         if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.P)) {
14.             mouseLookController.enabled = false;
15.             mouseLookCamera.enabled = false;
16.         } else {
17.             mouseLookController.enabled = true;
18.             mouseLookCamera.enabled = true;
19.         }
20.     }
21. }

This code works as such:
While holding down the letter P, the mouselook components are disabled.

 

Perfect!

 

Hmmm... mouseLook doesn't seem to be working any more in Unity 5. Anyone have an idea why?

 

Anyone have an idea on this?
